'Just Because' by Adam Stones performed by Ashley Rice

A short film created as part of Doctors Mental Health Awareness Week.

In Adam's own words:

Just because...is about still getting on and pushing forwards through daily life, work, family and survival when you feel weak, unintelligent and vulnerable. I WAS driving around and sleeping in a car that wasn鈥檛 mine. I felt clouded and bogged down by wrong information for a period of time. After deciding to leave my wife I was going through feelings of grief, pain and guilt. I felt lost and was looking for someone to blame...I still sort of am. But after some time, talking and writing things are clearer. It鈥檚 changing if you鈥檙e not happy and owning that change...I think.

Being asked to submit a poem for mental health awareness day was incredible and after submitting a few I鈥檓 honoured Just because... was chosen. The fact it鈥檚 been made into a little film for you to enjoy is even better.
